Mary K Engle: Makeup Artist

She also took the time to go back and review my trial pictures and decided that there were better lashes to use on my wedding day. I gave her full professional control and I am so happy I did! My hair and makeup were both beautiful!!

orking with Katie and I appreciate her flexability and creativity when working with me and my bridal party.

before booking and was flexible in scheduling a trial, which went perfectly. On the day of she and her hairstylist did an incredible job dealing with all different hair types, ages, and skin tones. She was also just a joy to have present on the wedding day. It was like having two additional friends hanging out with you on your wedding day, which when you are stressed out is a real lifesaver. She made everyone feel comfortable and look beautiful. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for hair and makeup for their wedding or other special event!

as so sweet and as a team they worked so hard to keep us on schedule. My hair and makeup held up all day long in 90 degree heat and I have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful I look in photos. I felt so gorgeous on my wedding and day. Thank you doesn't cover it! Hire her and thank me later!

hair and makeup done. It was not heavy at all and didn’t even feel like I had makeup on. My hair also lasted the entire night. Highly recommend!

s and bright colors for my makeup, and she said "oh I LOVE sparkles!" She was so excited to play around with color and shimmer, and I knew she would take excellent care of me. Leading up to my wedding, I was very anxious and texted her a few times. She always got back to me ASAP with exactly the info I needed, and didn't make me feel like a crazy bride. She cleared up any confusion I had, and kept communication open. I really appreciated that! The day of, Katie was a total delight! We got started at 9AM but she had pep in her step and kept our energy up (and our schedule moving forward). She was friendly, funny, refreshing, and just a lot of fun to be around. All of my bridesmaids were getting their makeup done alongside myself, so it was a long morning/afternoon and she made us all feel beautiful and energized! As for the makeup: Literally could not have been more perfect and gorgeous!!! Every one of my bridesmaids had a different shade of chameleon glitter on their eyes and perfectly shaped false lashes. Their faces were glowing and shimmering, and their eyes were breathtaking. As was mine! I gasped/screamed when I saw my final look--I didn't think I could look so amazing, but Katie went above and beyond! She even had some extra glitter to put in my hair--I was a glitter princess, and so much of that was thanks to Katie! Oh and she also did a wonderful job with the groom, who got a little glitter half moon on his cheek to match mine. I highly HIGHLY recommend Katie for her professionalism, positive attitude, open communication, and incredible talent! Seriously, you cannot go wrong with her, I can guarantee that.

same price. Because and I quote”the trial is done to the full extent it will be, on the wedding day. ” then she tried to increase the price of the wedding day hair and make up. When we were told it would be the exact same price as the trial. My hair( the bride), was not well done. It barely lasted an hour, and my hair holds curls very well, if I could add a photo, of my hair, during our first dance, you’d see how badly it was done. Heat, rain , snow. Etc were NOT to blame. It was a perfect mild day. Wasn’t hot or freezing cold. It was a perfect fall day. So weather is not to blame for my hair disaster . It was rather embarrassing to be honest. It looked awful. I could of done a better job, I do a better job when I curl my hair at home. My make up was a little better, but truly not what I expected. She didn’t even use setting spray on my wedding day, so I used my sisters who was the maid of honor. I ended up looking very cakey , which I told her I did NOT WANT. The mother of the brides hair did not hold either, and ended up looking really bad only after a small amount of time. Overall, I believe one can get a better hair and make up artist elsewhere.

day. She will travel to you too! We had 8 girls plus my mom that need to get their makeup done the morning of the wedding with a tight timeline and Mary K got them all done in plenty of time! I was so impressed with how professional she was and how fast she was able to get everyone's makeup done with all of them looking beautiful. I highly recommend!!

dramatic. She provided very light contouring, which I've never done before, and it was gorgeous. I've been picky about my hair for years, and she gave me a stunning, chic low bun updo that was the best my hair has ever looked. I've never looked better. Also, the hair and makeup stayed put from 10am-midnight, including lots of crying :) and dancing the night away. Highly recommend!!!
